My Life Is In Your Hands

Lyric: Sam M. Lewis & Joe Young

Verse 1:

Just like a clock without hands,
Ticking the long weary day;
Getting nowhere, going nowhere,
That's how I lived till you came my way:

Chorus:

You're captain of my heart,
My life is in your hands;
Destiny sent you to me,
Out of the shadows
When I was so lonely.
I thought we'd kiss and part,
But true love now commands;
I can't see how
You could leave me now,
My life is in your hands.

Verse 2:

Sometimes I wake up at night
Wondering can it be true;
Pinching myself, telling myself
Heaven was good 'cause it sent me you:

[Chorus]
